2. Bit time - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_time

   The bit time has nothing to do with the time it takes for a bit to travel on the network medium but has to do with the internals of the NIC. To calculate the bit time at which a NIC ejects bits, use the following: bit time = 1 / NIC speed To calculate the bit time for a 10 Mbit/s NIC, use the formula as follows:

3. Measuring network throughput - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measuring_network_throughput

   This means you need to know when a 'one' bit starts to distinguish it from idle. This is done by agreeing in advance how fast data will be transmitted over a link, then using a start bit to signal the start of a byte — this start bit will be a 'zero' bit. Stop bits are 'one' bits i.e. negative voltage.

4. Bitstream - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitstream

   A bitstream (or bit stream), also known as binary sequence, is a sequence of bits. A bytestream is a sequence of bytes . Typically, each byte is an 8-bit quantity , and so the term octet stream is sometimes used interchangeably.

5. Units of information - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_information

   These prefixes are more often used for multiples of bytes, as in kilobyte (1 kB = 8000 bit), megabyte (1 MB = 8 000 000 bit), and gigabyte (1 GB = 8 000 000 000 bit). However, for technical reasons, the capacities of computer memories and some storage units are often multiples of some large power of two, such as 2 28 = 268 435 456 bytes.

6. Binary file - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_file

   If a binary file is opened in a text editor, each group of eight bits will typically be translated as a single character, and the user will see a (probably unintelligible) display of textual characters. If the file is opened in some other application, that application will have its own use for each byte: maybe the application will treat each ...

7. Goodput - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodput

   This is related to the amount of time from the first bit of the first packet sent (or delivered) until the last bit of the last packet is delivered. For example, if a file is transferred, the goodput that the user experiences corresponds to the file size in bits divided by the file transfer time.

9. Mask (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mask_(computing)

   When the value of the mask is broken down into binary (0s and 1s), the results determine which address bits are to be considered in processing the traffic. A 0-bit indicates that the address bit must be considered (exact match); a 1-bit in the mask is a "don't care". This table further explains the concept.
